Business Operations Become More Efficient: The Success Story of Kamau Coffee & Tenun with Labamu

Streamlined business operations are key to a long-lasting culinary business. Without a well-organized management system, no matter how passionate you are about building your business, the results will still feel messy.

This story was experienced by Kamau Coffee & Tenun, a coffee shop in Kelapa Gading that was born from the owner 's love of fashion and coffee.

Initially, Kamau was known as a fashion brand featuring a distinctive Indonesian woven fabric. However, because the owner is a true coffee lover , that passion evolved into a coffee shop now known by its slogan, "a coffee lover who believes that people deserve to drink decent quality coffee in our lives."

Well, because Kamau's passion for coffee is so strong, he doesn't want to just serve any old drink. All the coffees on the menu are premium, carefully crafted and carefully crafted.

The menu options are complete, ranging from Espresso, Vietnam Drip, to signature creations such as Iced Biscoff Caramel and Palm Sugar Milk Coffee.

Operational Challenges between Cashier and Ledger

Behind the fragrant aroma of coffee and the crowds of customers, it turns out there is one big problem that has been giving the Kamau team a headache every month.

If you also own a culinary business, you've probably experienced a similar situation: the inventory in the cash register system differs from the inventory in the manual records. At Kamau, this problem occurs every month.

The cashier team records sales figures. The warehouse team records outgoing stock. However, when it's time for the month-end recap, the results often don't balance . Some products that should still be available are already sold out. There's also stock that isn't recorded even though it's clearly been sold.

As a result, the Kamau team experienced several negative experiences:

• Time is wasted just to re-note and check one by one.

• Employees often ask each other, "Was this inputted yesterday ? "

• Products can suddenly run out of stock without you realizing it.

As a business owner, this situation can be frustrating. That's when Kamau discovered Labamu, an app that helps MSMEs manage inventory and transactions automatically.
